The Sea of Death wasn’t well-known to the continent. However, it was quite famous in the Northern Liang Kingdom, the Northern Mang Kingdom, and Starfall Island.
This sea was not very large and was only 100,000 miles in diameter. It was not known for a long time as well, just for two years. Not many people went to the sea, and so this sea was not well-known to the world. Only the upper echelons of the two kingdoms and the people of Starfall Island knew about it.
This sea region became the Sea of Death for a reason.
Anyone, human or demonic beasts, who entered this sea region all died—no exceptions! Two years ago, Xia Tingwei once sent Old Eunuch Lin to lead a group of soul travel realm experts to explore the place. All but Old Eunuch Lin died.
In addition, this was because Old Eunuch Lin did not dare to come in. He watched the rest die but dared not to step in. He had a strong sense of crisis; he would die as well if he came inside!
In fact…!
The owner of the Starfall Island, the continent’s No.1—Shui Youlan also went here before. Finally, she only took a round near the place and dared not go in. She didn’t mention anything after returning, only strictly prohibiting the people of the Starfall Island from coming near this region.
This sea area was very strange!
During the day, it was calm and peaceful. The only difference was the water here was particularly black. There was no way to see the environment under the sea or to explore with divine senses. At night, there would be thunder and lightning striking towards the same spot repeatedly. It was bizarre to the extremity!
Jiang Yi had never been to sea, and nobody had told him about this sea region. Now, it was the middle of the night. He was hunted by a demon king, and so he had no choice but to break into this sea region.
He would die if he didn’t go in. Now he had entered, he felt that he was still going to die!
He was entangled by a kind of weird sea rattan and pulled down into the deep sea. The deep sea was dark, without any sea demon or any living creature. Jiang Yi’s whole body was entwined; he couldn’t move or make his essence force flow. To his greatest horror, he couldn’t instant-shift!
What’s this sea rattan? Why can’t I instant-shift? Is my soul spirit power also restrained? Or is the space under the sea restrained?
Jiang Yi twisted his body constantly in terror, which only tightened the sea rattan. The only thing he could use at the moment was the Fire Spirit Pearl. He instantly lit up the Fire Spirit Pearl. Countless Earth Fire poured out, and he tried to incinerate the sea rattan with Earth Fire.
Tsk-Tsk!
The Earth Fire was terrifying. The surrounding seawater immediately turned into white steam and surged upward upon touching it. However, that was all there was. The sea rattans were burned by the Earth fire, but there was no sign of it being destroyed at all. Jiang Yi grumbled bitterly in this mind. He had wasted too many Fire Spirit Rocks. If he spared some for this situation, he should be able to easily escape.
Boom! Boom!
Thunderbolts whistled down from the sky. Seven or eight thunderbolts went into the sea like electrical snakes and soon assembled into a giant thunder dragon rushing towards the deep sea. Jiang Yi looked along the direction of the thunder dragon and faintly saw a light spot.
A light spot!
Jiang Yi fixed his eyes on the seabed. He could see that the sea rattans came from this light spot. These sea rattans were pulling him towards the light spot. Terrified, he could sense the uneasiness deep down his soul got stronger. That light spot seemed like a big mouth of a faraway ferocious beast. Once he came close, it would destroy him into pieces.
What should I do? What should I do?
His mind was spinning fast to come up with some plans. In the end, other than letting out He Lao and asking him to figure out some ways to break the sea rattans, he had no other solutions!
The problem was could He Lao break the sea rattan? If he couldn’t and got entangled by it, things would become worse.
He couldn’t use his essence force at all. In order to release He Lao, the only way was to remove the Green Clear Vase from the Fire Spirit Pearl instantly and then crushed the Green Clear Vase with his hands. After that, He Lao would escape from that unique little space. But… Jiang Xiaonu would come out as well. She didn’t have any energy at all and would drown.
Therefore, Jiang Yi was at his wit’s end at last and watched himself being dragged toward the light spot.
The light spot was clearly at the bottom of the sea. As the sea rattan kept tugging Jiang Yi towards the seabed, that light spot became bigger as well—which turned into a light ball and, finally, a massive light shield.
“Uh…”
Jiang Yi’s eyes were constantly widening, the gloomy expression on his face turned into shock. His mind was so blown that it might be the scariest picture he had ever seen!
The seabed beneath him was very flat. Looking from a distance, it appeared like flat ground. Above the flat ground, an enormous semi-circular light shield covered it. The light shield was made up of one shield. It stood upside down on the seabed like a Witch God’s ancient formation. It emitted a soft light, illuminating the dark sea floor.
There was a shield in the bottom of the sea. This wasn’t what he feared!
What frightened Jiang Yi was a giant black ancient coffin that was suspended in the center of the shield. The coffin was without a cover. Inside it, there was a beautiful nude woman. All the thunder dragons that whistled from the above all came into the shield and disappeared the moment they shot on the coffin!
Night, seabed, shield, ancient coffin, naked girl, thunderbolt… sea rattan!
All kinds of strange situations combined to form a creepy picture. At the moment, Jiang Yi was pulled towards the shield. He even had no way to resist but to watch himself die.
Uh… so many bones!
Eyes swept under the ancient coffin, Jiang Yi was more scared. Beneath the ancient coffin, there were a lot of sea rattans twisted around many bones. Some bones belonged to humans and some to sea beasts. There were too many of them to be counted.
Bones and sea rattans occupied all the ground in the shield. There was no sign of fighting around them, which suggested that all these people and sea demons that were pulled down by the sea rattans could do nothing but to wait for their death.
That skeleton!
Jiang Yi was attracted by a huge skeleton with the shape of a dragon. It was several tens of meters in length and about 25 meters in height. If calculated by its size, it was definitely a sea demon at a demon king level!
Even a demon king couldn’t escape?
Jiang Yi revealed a trace of bitterness. Even a demon king had to die; how could he possibly live? Who was the woman inside the ancient coffin? Why was she at the bottom of the sea? Why was she naked? Was she alive or dead? Was she the one triggered the thunderbolt? Were these sea rattans controlled by her? What was going to happen to him?
Too many questions in his heart, but no one was here to answer them for Jiang Yi. His body was dragged into the shield which separated the sea water and was filled with fresh air. At least, he did not have to die from suffocation.
Bang!
His body was pulled to the seabed, next to the bones. The sea rattans no longer moved. Jiang Yi wriggled his body, but the sea rattans entwined him more tightly. Jiang Yi felt that his bones were about to be deformed by the sea rattans and didn’t dare to move anymore. Looking at the soft light shield above his head, the hanging ancient coffin, and the dark sea in all directions—Jiang Yi had a feeling of bewilderment.
Although at this moment, he had not been hurt; but all the skeletons around him were constantly reminding him.
He could not escape. He could not live. He could only stay here… quietly waiting to die!
